Chapter 44

"I remember you said that Black Crow was involved in human trafficking. If the Qilin bracelet that only the royal family wears appeared in Black Crow's warehouse, what do you think is the reason?"

Although Yuxing had never been to school, Shen Yuqing's words were too straightforward, so he immediately guessed the reason. Yuxing's face turned very ugly, and he murmured with a hint of luck: "How is it possible?!"

Shen Yuqing played with the Qilin bracelet and said calmly, "The bracelet is small in diameter. If it weren't for girls with smaller hand bones, only children could wear it. So maybe this black crow was really bold and kidnapped the royal family."

Most people have an inexplicable sense of awe towards the royal family, and Yuxing is no exception.

"You may have been caught in an unexpected disaster. After all, if the Black Crows really kidnapped the royal family and were safe and sound for so many years, they must be more powerful than you think. When you took the bracelet to the pawnshop, the Black Crows might have spied on you. Endangering the royal family is a serious crime, and only the dead can keep the secret, so they had no choice but to kill you to silence you."

Yuxing's eyes widened and his face turned pale. He stumbled towards the door as if he had thought of something, but he had just woken up and fell to the ground before he took a few steps.

Shen Yuqing grabbed Yuxing's arm in time to prevent him from falling to the ground.

"Grandma! Grandma, they are in danger!" Yuxing was shaking all over, and her eyes were so red that they seemed to bleed.

Several days have passed since he fell into the river and was rescued. After realizing the intention of those who were chasing him, Yuxing was more worried about the safety of his companions. Originally, he chose to go out to buy food, and now he has not returned for a long time. The food is running out and he is worried about his own safety. He is afraid that his companions will go out to look for him. If they are discovered by the black crows, his companions will have no way out.

Yuxing couldn't breathe normally when she thought about her companions losing their lives because of her mistake.

"Being so reckless will only result in losing your life in vain." Shen Yuqing spoke out as he looked at Yuxing with a look of despair in her eyes.

"But...."

Yuxing no longer cared about anything else. His breathing became more and more rapid, and he couldn't breathe as if he was lacking oxygen.

"Don't worry, take a deep breath, they are still waiting for you."

Perhaps Shen Yuqing's words reminded Yuxing of his companions. He knew that he couldn't fall here, and his breathing actually calmed down.

Seeing that Yuxing's cheeks had turned a little redder, Shen Yuqing turned to look at Jiang Chichen and said softly, "Xiao Jiang."

Jiang Chichen, who had been silent the whole time, heard the shopkeeper's gentle call and his pupils moved slightly.

"I..."

When he was in the mountain, he was thinking about revenge for his parents all the time. After coming down the mountain, he really found the whereabouts of his enemies. After his revenge, Jiang Chichen felt empty in his heart. He didn't know where to go. He killed many evil people along the way, but there was no place that could make him stop. By chance, he stayed in the Spring Return Inn, and his broken heart was healing. But now he found that the revenge he thought he had received was just the tip of the iceberg of the Black Crow Organization. Although he did kill his childhood nightmare with his own hands, when he thought that there were other people like him who had their families broken up and were displaced because of the Black Crow, he actually had some murderous intent in his heart.

He has now killed the murderer of his parents with his own hands, but looking at Yuxing in front of him, he remembered his childhood self. All this seemed to have nothing to do with him, but Jiang Chichen felt a sense of confusion in his heart.

"This bracelet is exquisitely crafted. I like it very much, so please give it to me. Of course, as a reward, let Xiao Jiang accompany you on the trip."

Shen Yuqing put away the Qilin bracelet as he spoke. He did not seek Jiang Chichen's opinion, but just looked at the two of them with a smile.

"Really? That's great!"

Yuxing's eyes were filled with disbelief and then surprise. He had seen with his own eyes how Jiang Chichen killed Black Crow. If he had been accompanied by the other party, perhaps he and his companions would have a chance of survival.

Just as Shen Yuqing expected, Jiang Chichen did not reject her. Looking at the impatient Yuxing, the corners of his mouth slowly curled up.

"Don't worry. Black Crow has probably memorized your appearance. If you go back rashly, you will definitely be startled and may even lose your life."

Shen Yuqing looked at Yuxing in front of him with a smile, but facing such a strange shopkeeper, Yuxing didn't know why he had the thought of escaping.

"Then...what should we do?" Yuxing ignored his own weird thoughts and asked haltingly.

Shen Yuqing's smile became even brighter. He patted the other person's shoulder and said slowly, "Don't worry, leave it to me."

After a while, a woman in a light blue dress walked out of the room slowly. She took small steps with a slender waist. She had a thin white veil on her face, her eyes were bright and moving, and the silver bead tassels in her hair swayed slowly.

"Is this really possible?!"

Yuxing was wearing a dress, and perhaps because she was shy and nervous, she looked very uncomfortable.

"Xiaoxing, you have to believe in my craftsmanship. If you go out like this, I guarantee that the people from Black Crow won't recognize you." Shen Yuqing looked at Yuxing carefully and nodded with satisfaction.

Yuxing was originally thin and small due to malnutrition, and perhaps because of his young age, his voice was androgynous. Now wearing this blue dress and veil, it was difficult for people to tell that he was a man.

Yuxing nodded. He knew that the shopkeeper disguised herself like that in order to avoid being exposed, but he still felt a little uncomfortable in the skirt.

"This time, our main purpose is to move Xiaoxing's companions to a safe place. The enemy is in the dark, but we are in the light. We should try our best to avoid conflicts with Black Crow."

Shen Yuqing said this and handed Yuxing a wooden box. The box was heavy and contained banknotes and silver.

"I'll use these silver coins to exchange for the items you took out from the Black Crow warehouse. You'll have to exchange those items for money sooner or later anyway. How about that?" Shen Yuqing

Who knows whether among the remaining items there will be items like the Qilin bracelet that will bring about fatal disasters. Therefore, Yu Xingsi does not think that Shen Yuqing did this out of greed for treasures. He is not an unreasonable person, he is just worried that he will implicate the other party.

"But...."

Yuxing wanted to say something, but was quickly interrupted by Shen Yuqing, "Then it's decided. Get ready to leave and try to come back as soon as possible."

"Xiao Jiang, remember to come back. Don't forget that you still owe me money." Shen Yuqing kindly reminded them as they were about to leave the inn.

Jiang Chichen, who was walking forward, was almost tripped by the threshold, and the black fertilizer in his hand looked at the strange two-legged beast with his nose.

After the two men left, Shen Yuqing adjusted his sleeves, sat back at the counter and flipped through the books in his hand. He had already put the Qilin bracelet into his game backpack. The loss of the royal family was a big deal. Unfortunately, although he wanted to be a spectator, he had been moving around the inn since he came to this world and had not even been to the nearest city. The most annoying thing was that the game system only provided him with the laws of the Beiyou Kingdom, as if it was afraid that he would go down the path of breaking the law.

Although a part of him was too lazy to find out the news, the waiters in the inn knew very little about the news. Uncle Li was devoted to cooking, and was harmed by his adopted son in his previous life. In his next life, he specialized in studying food. Wuming only had missions in his eyes. As for Jiang Chichen, he had just come down the mountain. The few copper coins on him were not even worth fighting for by beggars, let alone knowing any big news.

As the saying goes, you have to rely on yourself for everything. If you want to eat melons, you might as well ask someone.

Yun Wuque: Meow meow meow!

Shen Yuqing: Smile.
